1982 Map of Indian Pass

About this map

St Vincent Island dominates this coastal survey, serving as the centerpiece of the St Vincent National Wildlife Refuge. The map provides an intricate look at the dynamic shoreline where the Gulf of Mexico meets the St Vincent Sound. A striking series of beach ridges and swales characterizes the island's topography, indicating its geological evolution over centuries. To the north across the sound, the mainland is defined by the Forbes Purchase Line, a historic boundary demarcating the vast land grant that shaped settlement in this part of Florida.
